Patty's Pet Company charges $0.55 per pound to ship pet supplies. Part A: Write an equation to determine the total cost, c, to ship p pounds of pet supplies. Use your equation to determine the cost of shipping 2 pounds of pet supplies.

Part B: If the company reduces the cost to ship pet supplies by $0.05 per pound, write an equation to determine the total cost, c, to ship p pounds of pet supplies with the reduced cost.

A: c=.55p so $1.10 B: c=.5p

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an equation. If one pound is equal to $.55, 2 would be $1,10

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:
